1 is wrong. The universe is not yet infinite. It is continually expanding. Wait, Twitter, it's you. I remember you from the thread where you didn't know how some things in Spiral Knights were unbalanced. Here. I'll explain again:

If the universe were infinite, then there would be infinite stars, correct? Since there's infinite room for an infinite number of stars to be in. Stars produce light (GASP SHOCK AMAZE). Light's luminosity (AKA it's shininess) is not diminished (AKA made less shiny) by distance through space. So there would be infinite amount of light reaching the earth. But at night, do you see the sky ablaze with infinite light from infinite stars, with infinite infinite times greater than the sun? (Tip: the answer is no).

3 is wrong. Eventually, human stupidity will reach a critical point (CP), in which all of humanity will murder the shreds out of each other. Thus, past the CP there will be no more human stupidity since we'll all be too dead to be stupid. Oh wait these are humans. Ignore what I just typed.

Psst. Glad-Amputee:

-Matter isn't infinite. But it's pretty darn big. If matter were infinite, look back at my post for as why the universe cannot be infinite.

-Existence is possibly infinite. But we don't know.

-Time? Not sure. Eventually, the universe will collapse on itself, which I suppose won't end time; however, everyone will be dead, so why would time matter?

simply by attaching a number to the statement it has been defeated.

We will talk about whatever we want, deal with it. I'm sure you would love this forum to be an intellectual police state BUT IT IS NOT. You are not in charge.

intellectual police

intellectual police state?
my, you ARE an opinionated little yarmulke, aren't you?

if anybody would like to hold an actual intellectual discussion on infinity I would be more than happy to participate in a non-hostile way, but from what I've seen nobody here is intellectually prepared to do so.

notice I said prepared, deeming that I do not think that the people on these boards are incapable, simply not ready.

regardless of how you viewed my previous post, it was intended to point people in the correct path towards understanding this subject.

@OP

If you're saying Pi is infinite, you might as well mention all the other irrational numbers.

Oh hai Pvs.

I'm prepared to hold an intellectual discussion on infinity. First off:

Infinity isn't a number - it's a concept.

The universe cannot be infinite.

3. Human stupidity

hahahaha, Einstein you embicle. Do you have idea what
human stupidity is? Of course, after all you did gave birth to the most devastating weapon in human history, the atom bomb that can wipe out million in a matter of second. You worked all your life as scientist to help mankind but your work almost ruined us all! 21 century would have been a better place without you and your creations in it.

Human are not stupid, not by a long shot. If we were truely stupid like you said, our ancestors would have gotten stomped out by mammoth herds a long time ago. The stupidity in this case is more like human brutality, it is something that many chose to embrace and only the weak shung from it. It is a part of who we are, it runs in our vein, it is hidden beneath our double helixes. You think all the human conflicts in the last 2000 years is all a big conspiracy? Nonsense! The need to pass on one`s DNA has always been the root of all conflicts, if peace is ever truely on earth, human will all extinct. As long as there is humanity, there will always be bloodshed... human stupidity is infinite? More like brutality IMO.

All shell will break loose.

Midnight, I'm not sure if that embicle part was intentional or not.
As for the OP, no. There's only two things that are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, although the former I'm not so sure about.
